My boy got red ring and he just brought it back to Best Buy cause he had an extended warranty. I'm never one to go for extended warranties myself but after seeing how effortless it was for him to get a new 360 I'd say it's definitely worth it when buying a new Xbox. I mean it's cool that MS has 3 years for red ring but once you get hooked on all those 360 games you won't want to be without it for the couple of weeks it take to go through the rigamarole of a repair. |
I have thought about these extended warranties but I was put off by Best buy's price. Best Buy Canada charges $60 for 2 year coverage, $80 for 3 year coverage. That's pretty steep and that's why I was put off. I didn't know about Target's inexpensive warranty plan though at the time.
Oh wait nvm Target doesn't operate in Canada apparently. I could have sworn that I saw a Target store in a mall in Canada though.
